Adapters for Canon Powershot - no tread

We need to connect our Canon Powershot (no filter thread)
to our C5 for eyepiece projection.
What are you using outthere ?

Regards.

I have a PowerShot A10, and saw this SteadyPix mount. I set out to
build one last night. I'm not quite done, but I'm far enough for a
preliminary evaluation: it's really simple, and it looks like it will
work well. Pretty simple to build too, once you get the EP clamp bent
to the right shape.

I think the easiest way to use this thing will be to sit down with the
camera, mount and eyepiece, away from the telescope. Then get the
camera looking through the eyepiece and tighten everything up. Next go
back to the scope and see how you did.

Good luck -- mine should be built in time for Wed night .

you could try this kind of "universal" mount, the "steadypix" from orion:

You can chose from generic mounting brackets like the Orion SteadyPix or
camera-specific adapters from http://www.scopetronics.com/
